An ideal gas at pressure $P$ is enclosed in a container that is placed in a reservoir at temperature $T$. If the volume of the gas is increased to two times its original value, then the new pressure $P^{\prime}$ is equal to:

  • A
    $1/2$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    Cannot be determined

The specific heat of an isothermal process is:

$A$ certain gas is isothermally compressed to $(1/3)^{rd}$ of its initial volume $(V_0 = 3 \ \text{L})$ by applying required pressure. If the bulk modulus of the gas is $3 \times 10^5 \ \text{N/m}^2$, the magnitude of work done on the gas is . . . . . . $J$.

When an ideal gas in a cylinder was compressed isothermally by a piston,the work done on the gas was found to be $1.5 \times 10^4 \ J$. During this process,about:

An ideal gas is trapped inside a test tube of cross-sectional area $20 \times 10^{-6} \, m^2$ as shown in the figure. The gas occupies a height $L_1$ at the bottom of the tube and is separated from air at atmospheric pressure by a mercury column of mass $0.002 \, kg$. If the tube is quickly turned isothermally,upside down,the gas now occupies height $L_2$ in the tube. Find the ratio $L_2/L_1$. [Take atmospheric pressure $P_0 = 10^5 \, Nm^{-2}$ and $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$]
